Hi Darren
The number on the plate at the rear of the trailer 3888 is the chassis number of the trailer.The wheels were from the factory fitted with 7.50-20 tyres,on the North South road the tyres failed because of the pounding and the heat,the trucks and the trailers were changed to 8.25-20 I have this size on my Ford truck and trailer and they look the part.The wheels on the trailer are 5 stud Ford or International rims.You have done well getting the landing wheels,spare tyre carrier and turntable.There is a heavier trailer that had spoked wheels but it was usually towed by the bigger K7 International.Cheers Ken
